10/10
A Beautiful Tail...

After reading some of the debilitating comments on this, I felt the need to comment. It is a wonderful film. The voice talents were excellent and I found it to be a sweet, sentimental story. I think it might help if you love the ocean to begin with, as I do.

I found myself crying in two places and my children who viewed it: ages 3,4 and 13, all loved it. A G rating is a great change of pace. This is a children's film and the subtle aspects that are for adults are not the snickering b.s. prevalent in recent years films.

This film received an award of excellence from the film advisory board and I think it is well earned.

If you're a cynic looking to pick things a part, you shouldn't be watching this anyway. I wanted to be entertained and I was. The animation was it's weakest link, and I'd still give the animation a B+ for quality.

This film had depth (hee, hee) and humor and compassion and with the crop of junk that passes for entertainment out there I couldn't pass on the opportunity to speak up and encourage others to watch it.

A question to all of you with your scathing comments:

Why do you spend your time tearing a part the creative efforts of others?

This was a lovely film and it is original and creative, two rare things these days. Take a bow little fishies...
